Morak, Guy Shmuel

Ben Ella and Victor. He was born on 19 September 1976 in Kibbutz Netzer Sireni, the brother of Anat. Guy was a big, healthy baby, a comfortable and good-natured toddler. It always seemed to him that all the people and animals he met were happy to meet him. His childhood was a typical childhood for a kibbutz, except that he had American grandparents, and about every three years he would go to visit them for a family visit. These trips, apart from the pleasure of them, greatly expanded his horizons, and from an early age he knew a wide world beyond the kibbutz and Israel. Guy attended elementary school in Netzer Sereni and was a very intelligent student with excellent analytical ability. He grasped the material quickly, and never understood why it should be explained more than once. His studies at the Brenner Comprehensive High School in Givat Brenner were a direct continuation of the elementary school. Guy would sit in classes with no interest, but get high marks on exams. He aspired to perfectionism and had very high demands on himself, which were often far higher than the requirements of the school. He knew he could not meet his own expectations, so he would give up the effort. With a small smile and conversation, he was rejected, or given up, on submitting jobs and preferring to pursue his main hobby – reading science fiction books or playing a friendly basketball game with the guys. In December 1994, Guy enlisted in the IDF, where he wanted to get to a combat unit, but he was ready to take whatever he needed from him, and served in the Ordnance Corps on July 24, He was buried in the cemetery in Netzer Sereni, and was survived by his parents and sister, who wrote: “Guy was a modest, quiet, diligent, talented and disciplined young man who performed every task he was given, Claims and special requests. He was loved by his comrades in the armaments department. Was praised by all those around him, his commanders and his colleagues in the unit. “His classmates in the kibbutz, Dekel, said in the eulogy:” … in the classroom was Guy World – a world in itself. He was a beautiful and talented guy who did not stand out. Very introverted, converging within himself. The math man of our class. He set the rules in his world. He did not let anyone interfere. Science fiction books were his great love. He could read all night and ignore his surroundings and duties. “The teacher added,” This summer I lost a student. Tall, handsome, smartest of all. You excelled in your studies without a drop of effort, and your phrasing was exceptionally fluent and rich, your figure tall, light and soft. Success in sports, in physics, in history. Emerald in mathematics. Prominent in English. Members of the class immediately recognized the elite in you and wanted your company. You were a prodigy in everything. “
